I suppose Alex would argue that his beloved Velvia makes the picture that counts better in some way though obviously I disagree. I feel that digital makes it easier to capture the shot you want in the way you want it and make sure you have got it before moving on. Changing ISO on the hoof, shooting in RAW so all the parameters can be changed later to give many options. I could go on but you all know the list as well as I do. Enjoy your Velvia Alex, I have not touched my film cameras for years. I have several thousand of slides and colour negative the older ones of which, about 50 years old and some older, have slowly deteriorated by fading and some getting mould on them despite as careful storing as I can manage.
